ROUND TOP {Fall 08}: Found for the home
Open any home decor magazine on news stands today and you will find an intriguing juxtaposition of materials. Peely-paint tables mixed with linen upholstery * iron architectural salvage used as art * cowhides covering modern chairs. I have a strong affection for this look, especially the “Urban Farmhouse” style of mixing corrugated metal * antiqued paint * neutral colors * and a pop of grass-green velvet.
This is why I am dying to get to Houston to check out Found ~ for the home. A new store that celebrates the idea of mixing things up & taking nothing too seriously. On the Found website, co-owner, Aaron Rambo says “We simply collect items that speak to us, regardless of provenance. It’s about living with authenticity.” I LOVE it!! Once again I see the pages of magazines unfolding{that seemed to happen a lot at Marburger this year… so much talent!!}.
Aaron and Ruth, the business partners and founders of Found, started off as a designer-client team. They quickly became friends who appreciated one another’s aesthetic and knew that bringing their tastes & talents to life in a retail store would satisfy long-held dreams.
Opening Found last year, this was the store’s premiere Marburger Farm show. The sampling that Aaron and Ruth brought to Marburger Farm for Round Top Antique Week was intriguing and indicative of the unique mix for which Found is becoming known.
